You can sync between Chrome and Chrome mobile but you cannot sync between Chrome with Firefox or Safari. Dolphin will keep all your bookmarks from Firefox/Chrome/Safari combined. We want to be more universal and give users choices.

Mobile is huge, no doubt, and the Dolphin browser is a great product. The point I argue in this piece is that it is handicapped by not being universal. Even as desktop browsers decrease in use, they are still important.

Thu, 17 Jan 2013 14:47:19 +0000http://pandodaily.com/?p=63950#comment-42562Hamish – we are standing by your mobile-first strategy. Roughly one in seven searches are happening on mobile. 39% use the Internet on their smartphones while going to the bathroom (we all do it :) and 88% of people who search on mobile have taken action within a day.
As for Siri – Siri doesn’t really ‘Search’ well in my humble opinion If you say eBay Nike shoes to Siri, Siri has no idea what you are talking about. If you say it to Dolphin, it will go into eBay and show you all the Nike shoes it found on eBay. This is what mobile search is all about.
